Hi! We are a group of dedicated litter-picking volunteers who love our great town – PADIHAM! Our group has collected over 1,100 bags of litter over the past nine months, but our BAGOMETER is hungry for more!! Anyone is welcome to join us as we work for ‘Cleaner Streets and a Tidier Town’!

We meet every Saturday at 1 pm, at different venues around town for our ‘SUPER SATURDAY’ litter picks. . Please see our PADIHAM LITTER PICKERS Facebook page for more details of this and future events.

We also meet at 1 pm every Thursday, at Clitheroe Street Car Park, behind the ‘Hand and Shuttle’, for our regular litter pick around the town centre, and along both sides of Burnley Road, up as far as Dryden Street.

Our litter picks last between 1 and 2 hours, and you can stay for the whole pick, or for just as much as you feel able. Children are welcome too, but an adult must accompany those under 14. Dogs are also welcome!

We supply ALL the equipment you will need, at no charge, along with free chocolate and cold drinks. You can also pick up a copy of our FREE 12-page full-colour newsletter, ‘The Picker’, which is also available from Taproom Padiham, Bertwistles Bakery, Barber Bros, and Rawes Grazing Co, plus the foyer at Padiham Town Hall.

So why not come along and enjoy the great outdoors, meet new friends, and partake in a really meaningful community activity? Let’s LIFT THAT LITTER – ‘TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE’! …as we always say!
